This may be a stupid question but does anybody have any tricks to getting to the bolts underneath the manifold? I must be looking at it wrong or trying it from the wrong angle but I cant seem to get to them. Thanks in advance for the help, and feel free to call me a dumb ass

I've used the universal sockets with good results gives you a LOT of leeway as far as wrench angles and such. Make sure it's a universal socket and not just a universal attached to a socket, cause that's too bulky to fit against the manifold flange.
